You can say what you want about Christina Aguilera, but recently I've become obsessed with her. I imported my old Genie In a Bottle-era CD into my iTunes and listened to the songs I haven't since I was 8. Plus, I bought all her new songs that have the high energy and heart-broken melodies that only 'Xtina' can pull off. And whether you like her or not, you have to admit that she's come a looooong way since this era:
(Although Beautiful is one of my favorite Aguilera songs.)
(Christina at Fashion Rocks in September. I love love love her style here, the navy look but in glam gold!)
Christina is SO talented, did you know that she has a four-octave range? And I just love her old-Hollywood style these days.
I love the phonograph behind her, the mod zebra carpet, and the patten leather in these two pictures. 
And who but Christina can pull off those alluring smoky eyes and bright bright red lipstick and nails, also with platinum blonde hair? (Granted, it's dyed, but it look so good on her!)
Here's a few tips for getting Baby Jane's makeup looks:
(Hard Candy Eye Candy Eyeshadow in Licorice, Bobbi Brown Sandwash Eye Palette, and CARGO SmokyEye brush)
I have all three of these. The black eye shadow is so great as a base for the smoky eyes and then the Bobbi Brown palette has shimmery eyeshadow in every color, a smoky eye for every outfit. But what will really change your life is the CARGO brush. I could never live without mine once I got it!
(Dior, Chanel, Vincent Logo)
Living with my mom has definitly taught me a thing or two about TRUE red . When I go off to college, my mom will be content with knowing I will never see a burgendy, pink-ish red, or (ack!) orangy-red, and let it pass for true red.
(Can you guess that my mom's favorite color is red?) I'm glad to say that Christina's reds have fallen into the True Red category. And so have the lipsticks above.
My mom also has always, for as long as I can remember, had True Red toe-nails. She'd never settle for less, and neither should you. The BEST True Red nail polish is Sporty Kar Red by Sation. (the right one) There's no replacement for this.
Think like this. Your red should always be the same color as a Red Ferrari.
(The other lady's nails and nail polish bottle in this picture are also True Red)
Christina's fashion style is so Old-Hollywood. Here's a few finds that reminded me of her:
And a picture that probably inspired Christina herself:

my mom always has a red pedicure too - haha. i love christina, and even if you don't like her you can't overlook her amazing voice! also, vincent longo is perhaps the BEST cosmetics company ever - haha. try his lipgloss (expensive but soo worth it) in Baci XXX - the best color and not sticky. Also, i have that cargo brush and it works wonders! haha
christina has such an amazing voice! even though she went through her 'bad' stage, i still liked her.
I've never been a big fan of Christina in the past but, from what I've heard off the new CD, it sounds great!
shes the most talented singer of our time in my opinion. and she looks great. i love her style, its almost cartoon like.
Christina is certainly becoming a much more... um... mature singer these days. she used to be one of those dumb hollywood blondes, but she has now made her own statement and is her own unique person now. I also love her new CD! the music is the perfect mix between jazz and pop. :)
I like her too
I have Baby Jane for my smokey eye makeup application
